Title: Still after them!
Post by: Basinboy on February 03, 2013, 04:26:00 PM
We have a long bow season here in La. Opens Oct 1st and runs till Feb 15th. Yesterday myself and a friend were doing some scouting and like always I was packing my recurve. We had split up and I was slipping down the edge of a slough. My friend must have bumped this big ole girl and she ran right to me. She stopped in the right place and I was fortunate to make a good shot. She ran about 60 yards and was done...

Boy, you grow some big ones down there!  Congratulations on a super sized doe!  I keep going back and looking at that great head mount of your buck.

No shame in getting some meat on the ground. Nice deer.

That's a pretty long season, here in northern VA some areas the season goes from September 3rd or so through March 31st. But that's basically suburban deer hunting unless your on the military bases.
